*Description*
-------------
The default Macro Security Level changed from Medium to High.
The intention is to make sure people don't execute malicious macros by
just clicking OK.
When the Level is High, and a document with macros is not in a trusted
location (there is no such location per default), and the macros are
not signed, the only way to execute the macro is to change the
security level back to medium or low.
But this is not a single click action in the macro warning, so people
will think more carefully before doing so.
